Suspend to ram is not working from 11.4 on Asus N53JF; suspend to disk works quite well, doesn’t turn off the notebook

I am glad things are working for you now and I am sorry for my late reply - I have been enjoying holidays for a very long time - Normally you should ask for help via the opensue mailing lists - Forums like this one are not really designed for help - I thought if I could not come up with an easy fix I would have suggested you go to the mailing lists but things went o.k
The Video Driver support from other local Repositories sometimes does not work out very well as the change to the Video driver often changes the default Kernel Module with some very nasty side effects some times - Glad your o.k - Scott
Well that’s a healthy attitude, no wonder I always thought of the mailing list people as being arrogant prats - keep it up.

Actually, this is not true - these forums (the support forums, that is)
are in fact designed for people to get help, and many people do in fact
get help here for their problems.

Are you addressing this question to me (and my comments), or to zczc2311?

OOppsss… quoted wrong post – never mind Jim, I’ll delete the original question, not really worth chasing.
Flux Capacitor Penguin - DenverD is quite correct - Just because I was able to fix your S2RAM and S2DISK in 11.3 by adding the correct video driver was a once off.
If you open Opensuse home page in FF you can search for mailing lists and then join a mailing list for your problem.
This is the very unfortunate method we use for custoer help, but we all make the best of things…S2RAM, I would suggest is all about the Video Driver; but that is a huge guess.
Join a mailing list and you can ask just about anythng depending on what problems each different mailing list is there for.
If you need help joining a mailig list email me privately at

sorry Scott, but it is my opinion is that you have misunderstood the
relationship between these forums and the mailing list, because anyone
needing help to join a mailing list, should not!
instead, new users with that level of technical need should be here
and not clogging up the mail list asking very basic questions…

Is “suspend to ram” what is commonly referred to as simply “suspend” and “suspend to disk” what is commonly referred to as “hibernate”?
There are three types of suspending, at least;
- Suspending to RAM
- Suspending to RAM with flush + hibernate on low power
- Hibernate
1 is classic turn off everything but keep power to ram + controller, minimal power consumption.
2 is as 1 except it also writes memory to disk and hibernates if battery is low, the idea is to prevent data loss in case there’s a catastrophic power loss.
3 flush all to disk and shutdown, no power consumption at all.
